Tiger Encounters
A Snowy Treat for Spring!
Straight from the Marcan Tiger Preserve, we now have two cuddly Snowy White Bengal Tiger cubs! Brother and sister: Yeti and Kolkata are ready to pounce & play with adults and children ages 4 and up!
Encounters are available by reservation at scheduled times throughout the day and can accommodate up to 4 individuals per time slot and will be filled accordingly.
Pricing is $25 + tax for children ages 4-12, and $50 + tax for adults, PLUS the cost of regular zoo admission. Children must be accompanied by a paying adult.
